2024 Turkey Meat Pole

[RedRidge]

I’ve killed a handful of turkeys in my life but am not a “turkey hunter”, and I’ve had fans in my freezer for several years not knowing what to do with them and too cheap to pay a taxidermist. I don’t know why I never thought about it before, but utube is a great resource for learning random stuff…like preserving turkey fans.
I got this years and one of the old ones out of the freezer preserved and ready to mount on a plaque this weekend, and I’m pleased with the way they turned out.

I see you have watched the same how to video using bondo. Slightly more work for a much better product IMO. I’ve done two this year and don’t see myself going back to borax/pinning.

Nebraska public land 4/20. Called this tom in from over 400 yards (ranged). Even pulled him away from 3 hens. Hens running after him, pretty funny.
Drew a KS tag, but got called back to work last Monday. Got to make money to pay for future hunts lol. So 1 and done this year for me.
